I first heard this acouple of months back on the Howard Stern Show coming out of the break, and had to look up.

"Starbuck's sharpening his harpoon The black man's playing his tune An old salt's sleeping his watch away He'll be drunk again before noon"

. This sounds like a heroin addict is getting his fix while he listens to black music. Kinda backs up my theory that the greatest songs are written on and about drugs. Great song.

@justasimpleguy YOU are backing up your theory lol Nothing about drugs AT ALL
